Frenzelsberg, Mountain summit in Seifhennersdorf, Germany.
Frenzelsberg is a mountain in eastern Upper Lusatia near the Czech border, rising to approximately 474 meters. The slopes are covered with mixed forest and meadows, crossed by several marked hiking trails that connect to nearby attractions.
The mountain served as a natural boundary between German and Czech lands for centuries, shaping how the border region developed. This border location influenced the landscape's character and remains visible in the way the surrounding villages and territories are arranged today.
The summit draws hikers who come to experience the rolling landscape of Upper Lusatia and its connection to the surrounding borderland region.
The hike is manageable for people with average fitness and takes about three hours for the round trip from the Karasek Museum parking area. Spring through autumn offers the best conditions, with dry trails and clear views from the summit across the border landscape.
Wild orchids of several species grow naturally on the mountain slopes among the mixed forest, making it a quiet spot for nature watching. These flowers thrive especially in the open meadow areas during the blooming season from May to June.
